It's a pity that Shen Wan only knew that Concubine Chen had committed something that offended Long Yan, but Shen Wan didn't know the specific crime. She wanted to ask but was afraid of exposing Xie Jingyan's scars, so she could only endure it. It was really torture, but from Xie Jingyan's perspective Judging from the emperor's attitude, there may be something hidden in the matter of Concubine Erchen.

Shen Wan held the tea cup, and the dense tea smell made her porcelain white face hazy. No one knew what she was thinking.

While she was distracted, Yin Shuang called her, "Princess, what did Dong'er tell you about the fourth girl?"

Only then did Shen Wan realize that Dong'er was standing in front of her. Shen Wan asked, "What's wrong with the fourth girl?"

Dong'er hurriedly replied, "Today, the fourth girl was pushed off the bridge by the eldest girl from General Mingwei's Mansion at Qingfeng Bridge. Fortunately, the Crown Prince of Wei saved her and did not fall into the water..."

Shen Wan frowned.

The fourth sister has a soft temper and never makes grudges with others. The eldest daughter of General Mingwei's Mansion must have targeted her because the post of arms supervisor fell into the hands of the fourth uncle and she was not able to give it to the second master. The old lady was dissatisfied, not to mention Ming Ming. People from the Wei General Mansion.

There are so many official positions in the imperial court, and each one has always been based on his or her own merit. Holding a grudge when seeking an official position is too narrow-minded. Furthermore, even if Xie Jingyan hadn't recommended his fourth uncle, the position of Ordnance Supervisor might not have gone to him in General Mingwei's mansion.

If the Emperor wanted to give it to General Mingwei or the Second Master, he would have given it to him long ago. He would not wait until Xie Jingyan recommended it and let his fourth uncle take advantage of it.

Even she understands things that the eldest prince and Xie Jingyin don't understand.

Shen Wan looked worried, but her mood soon improved again. Dong'er grinned and said, "Miss Zhang from General Mingwei's Mansion pushed the fourth girl into the water. Chunlan was in a hurry to 'rescue' the fourth girl and accidentally knocked down Miss Zhang." The bridge is over..."

When the fourth girl fell off the bridge, the prince of Wei State came to the rescue in time, but no one rescued Miss Zhang. It is said that the splash of Miss Zhang was several feet high when she fell. When she was rescued, she was as embarrassed as she wanted.

Shen Wei was rescued by the prince of Wei Guogong, which was beyond Shen Wan's expectation. He didn't expect such a surprise later. The fourth sister always only suffered a loss when meeting others, but she didn't this time. It was really not easy.

Shen Wan met Shen Wei the next day, and Shen Wan found out that Shen Wei left the house yesterday just to choose jewelry for her. She was busy greeting the congratulatory guests and had no free time. It rained for three consecutive days. As soon as the sky cleared up, Shen Wei hurriedly took Chunlan out to choose a thank you gift.

In fact, before Qingfeng Bridge, Shen Wei had a dispute with Miss Zhang from General Mingwei's Mansion. Shen Wei fell in love with a piece of silk and satin in a silk and satin shop. She liked the color and pattern very much, so she wanted to buy it and give it to Shen Wan. , but when they were looking at it, Miss Zhang went and wanted to buy the silk and satin that Shen Wei was interested in. Shen Wei said that she had taken a fancy to it first, but Miss Zhang said that she was just looking at it and never said to buy it, and then started to grab it.

The satin was not very strong, and the shopkeeper of the satin shop was worried that they would tear the satin, so he quickly persuaded them to make peace with it. There was only one piece of satin, but the satin shop had more expensive and better-looking ones, but both of them only wanted this one, and Shen Wei had always had a temper. Ruanmian, that is, this silk satin was bought to be given to Shen Wan, so she fought hard to the end, but she couldn't give it away even if the silk satin was torn, so she let go.

As soon as she let go, Miss Zhang stumbled back and hit her elbow on the counter. She grimaced in pain and her skirt accidentally caught the counter. She pulled hard in anger and tore the skirt.

The fact that her father failed to advance to the rank of Ordnance Supervisor was enough to make Miss Zhang angry. She went out to relax and met Shen Wei, which made her feel even more unlucky. Then she thought about Shen Wei, the daughter of a fifth-rank official. After catching the eye of Mrs. Wei Guogong and getting engaged to the prince of Wei Guogong, she was even more jealous. She wanted to vent her anger immediately, but she couldn't. She also hurt her elbow and tore her favorite dress. Miss Zhang Gritting his teeth angrily.

Shen Wei ignored her and walked out of the silk shop. Although Miss Zhang got the piece of silk, she was not happy at all. Later, the two met again on the street. Shen Wei didn't want to be entangled by her, so she simply changed to another street to continue. She walked across the Qingfeng Bridge. Miss Zhang couldn't see that Shen Wei was ignoring her, so she stepped onto the bridge faster and bumped into Shen Wei on purpose.

Shen Wan knew what happened next, but Shen Wei didn't say anything.

Yinshuang noticed that Chunlan was dressed particularly eye-catchingly today. She wore silver bracelets on her hands, silver earrings on her ears, and a silver hairpin in her hair. This look was as good as Yinshuang's.

Seeing Yinshuang looking at her, Chunlan smiled so hard that she couldn't see her teeth. She shook the silver bracelet on her wrist and said, "This is a reward from the Duke of Wei."

Yinshuang said "Ah", "I thought it was the fourth wife who rewarded you."

Not only Yinshuang, but Shen Wan also thought so.

She looked at Shen Wei with a smile.

Shen Wei's face is even more delicate than azalea.

Chunlan smiled and said, "My wife gave me a gold and jade hairpin and twenty taels of silver."

She has been serving the fourth girl for several years, and the money she has saved is not as much as the reward she got yesterday. It is like a dream.

The more she thought about it, the happier she became, Chunlan said, "It's all thanks to my aunt..."

Shen Wan laughed, "Why is it thanks to me?"

Chunlan said, "Didn't my aunt tell the girl to be tough and support her if something happens? Yesterday, the eldest daughter of General Mingwei's Mansion bullied the girl and even tried to kill her. This servant was furious for a moment. , he pushed her off the bridge and asked her to keep the girl company..."

It is better for two people to be embarrassed than for one girl to be embarrassed alone.

But Chunlan didn't expect that her daughter fell into the water and was saved by the prince of Wei Guogong. No one saved Miss Zhang, but Miss Zhang brought it upon herself and deserved it.

Because of her loyalty to protect the Lord, the Crown Prince of Wei rewarded her, and after returning home, the fourth wife also rewarded her.

Shen Wan helped Shen Wei several times and asked Shen Wei to toughen up. Chunlan always remembered it in her heart. Once she found out that Shen Wei had softened her temper, she did not dare to remind her face to face. She would reiterate Shen Wan's words afterwards. If she said too much, she would lose her courage. Now that she has grown up, she would never have dared to think about it before. She, a maid, dared to push the girl from General Mingwei's house into the water. It's good that she didn't burst into tears.

Shen Wan nodded, looked at Shen Wei and said, "That's how it should be. We don't bully others, and we must never be bullied by others."

Shen Wei nodded repeatedly.

Yesterday was almost the first time she was bullied and fought back. It felt so good. Her mother also regretted that she should not have taught her to be tolerant when things happened. Tolerance would only get worse in return. She would never be so weak and cowardly in the future. .

From the look on Shen Wei's face, Shen Wan knew that she had really improved. With more training, Shen Wan believed that the fourth sister could also be reborn and become the wife of the Crown Prince of the Duke's Palace who could take charge of her own role.

But Shen Wan took a second look and found that Shen Wei was hesitant to speak.

Shen Wan said, "Is there anything else you can't say to me?"

Shen Wei said, "It's about third brother..."
